Baroness Doune, your effigy corset is stunning. The fit, the color, the technique. I am, as always, in awe of your skills. 

This year, I have been wearing the side lacing corset I made from the corset generator; I did not tab it, and I seriously regret it.  The weight of the corset and the skirts seems to sit squarely on the hips, and is very uncomfortable.  I also like that you used linen instead of duck; I think my corset turned out heavier than it needs to be. I think my project this summer will be a new effigy corset using some of the methods you've used. Thanks for keeping such good diaries with pictures so we can learn from you!
